Installation and Owner’s Manual
(For Aftermarket Application)
Resources Required
• Cordless or Electric Drill or Screw Gun
• Appropriate Drive Bits
• Cutting Implement for Tubing
• Flexible, Reinforced Hose with
1/2
" Minimum Inner Diameter
• Appropriate Pipe Fittings as Needed
• Four Screws to Fasten Pump to Mounting Surface

Mounting Instructions
1.
Pump may be located at the same level or below the
water tank. However, if necessary, the pump may be
positioned above the water tank since it is capable of a
6 ft. vertical prime. Also, horizontal inlet tubing will allow
priming to 30 ft.
2.
Consider a dry location that allows easy access, if
maintenance is required.
3.
Installation space for pump should be at least 1
cubic feet to allow for adequate ventilation and prevent
overheating.
NOTE:
Excessive heat may trigger the integral thermal
breaker and interrupt operation. When the temperature
drops, the breaker will automatically reset.
4.
Pump may be mounted in any position. However, if
pump is mounted vertically, the pump head should be in
the down position to avoid leakage into the motor casing
during a malfunction.
Installation
The following guidelines should be considered to achieve
optimum pump performance. Mount the pump with 4
screws. In many instances, the pump is being utilized as a
replacement pump. Adjust instructions as needed.
NOTE:
The mounting feet are intended to isolate the pump
from the mounting surface. Overtightening, flattening or
use of oversized screws will reduce the ability to isolate
vibration and noise through the lines.
NOTE:
Always follow all local or national installation codes
and standards.
General Installation Instructions
1.
Solid surface should be available for mounting to prevent
vibration and noise.
2.
Accessible location away from living quarters.
3.
Properly-sized wiring.
4.
Proper electrical protection.
5.
Flexible hose on inlet and outlet.
6.
Strainer on plumbing elbows and valves near the pump.
7.
Minimize flow restrictions in the system.
